Parking Lots: Back to the Drawing Board
Parking Lots Improv—The Cinematheque
This improv act asks viewers to draw on an easel prior to entering the theatre; the drawings become the topics of story lines. It’s a nice twist as the topics are predetermined, rather than inspired by the audience of the moment.
This show reminds me of a roller coaster, soaring at times, clacking and crawling at times. Fortunately, this troupe has five members so there’s always someone to step-in if anyone falters. Unfortunately, this troupe has five members, which is sometimes too many. They’re all hams (you have to be to do this sort of thing) and at times, they fight each other to get their bits in.
Overall, it’s a solid effort and if you’re an improv fan, you’ll walk away happy.
